Hello madam, from the history you have given, I would suggest you to consult your gynaecologist, you may require an examination, if pregnancy is ruled out then you may be prescribed medicines for withdrawal bleeding. Sometimes stress also delays periods.a detail history may be required to rule out the cause of irregular periods. Even medical disorders like thyroid can also alter the menustrual cycles . hope i was helpful to you.
